Over the years I’ve worked with lots of fabric lines
manufactured by different textile companies. You would think fabric is fabric,
right?! But, as I’ve explored the various options, I’ve come to realize that
some feel better than others – even if they’re all 100% cotton.

What’s great about the design of that pattern is that it’s
perfect for showing off prints. As much as I love cutting fabric into smaller
blocks, it’s sometimes nice to really feature the prints in all their glory.
The Reverberance pattern does just that.

The original version was made to highlight the whimsical
details of Tamara Kate’s latest Joy fabric collection. This time around, the
pattern still does an amazing job of showcasing the swirling effect of the
Marble collection.

When it came time to quilting, I wanted to keep the focus on
the fabrics, so I opted for matching Aurifil Threads in the colours 2245, 2520,
2530, 1231, 2435 and 5003. I also wanted a seamless look on the back, so I
stuck with Aurifil Thread in 4020 to match the gorgeous print in the back. Yup,
that meant a different colour bobbin thread, which is always a little scary.
